In 1918, Carl Kaefer founded a company specialising in the supply of insulation material and services to the shipbuilding industry. His idea was to use peat to insulate the walls of the cold storage stores – the vision of an efficient energy economy was born.

The company’s rapid growth proved that Carl Kaefer had recognised the sign of the times. Soon, new markets had been developed and offices established all over the world.

Since then, KAEFER has become the leading provider for the most professional integrated services and solutions for the Industry, Marine & Offshore, and Construction business worldwide.
